Volunteer Training

Welcome to Center School

◦ We appreciate your time and effort to support our school

Your time will support the growth of our students towards many important goals.

In order to make your time here meaningful and productive please review these following points.

We expect the students at Center School to show respect to all adults.

If a child is having difficulty showing you respect and appreciating the time you are giving here, please gently remind them of our school expectations.

If that is not effective, please contact the teacher.

All of our children are learning and growing! ◦ Please respect their right to learn and grow in a

nurturing environment where they can feel safe.

◦ Nothing that you see or hear at Center School should be repeated outside of school. Innocent or “cute” stories can be easily misunderstood.

◦ Please respect our children’s right to privacy as they grow by not talking about them outside of school.

Often with young children there is an urge to rescue when you see them working through a problem.

As long as children are tolerating their problem solving situation well please resist the urge to take away their chance to grow and learn from the situation.

Help students by gently guiding their thinking towards productive problem solving thinking.

Positive feedback for productive thinking will go a long way!

Center School is a wonderful place. Enjoy your time with us.

If you have any problems please speak with the teacher. If you need more support, please feel free to reach out to me!

Thank you so much for your investment in our school community.
